Harris saying that non-dual consciousness is unaware of what the brain is doing during that state. But why should it be? Materialists are fond of saying, "Neurologists have been investigating the brain for a long time, and have never discovered anything like a soul" (category error again). The statement can be reversed: "Meditators have been investigating consciousness for millenia, and have never discovered anything like a brain". Exactly. The two categories are unmixable, even if the production theory claims turn out to be true.
Chopra needs to drop the metaphysics and meet the materialists on their own ground, i.e., not make unprovable assertions that consciousness creates molecules. Perhaps he should step down from the debate until he can marshal scientific/philosophical reasons for mind-brain dualism, as Raymond Tallis and others have been doing with some success.
undefineable wrote:I also note that Harris tried to persuade Chopra to apologise for 'making claims for which he has no evidence' (consciousness creating Reality in either the New Age or the Buddhist vision would be a good example), but this seems perverse when neither man is known as a scientist.

Nosta wrote:Deepak Chopra is just another New Age guy. Not a real buddhist, neither a real defender of Dharma.
Second, a buddhist will not enter this kind of useless discussions.
Or you believe or you dont, and if you dont there is no point on keeping a discussion that will end in a predictable way: with no conclusions but where the "rational" side will be slightly shining.
[Super] Skeptical people are really annoying.
steveb1 wrote:One path toward a non-materialist answer might be phrased in questions like, "Once created by, or emerged from, brain activity, in what way does consciousness continue to keep and express its purported physical origins and functions?
Does it in fact 'behave' in the same way as matter - or even the same way as the brain - behaves?
For example, vapor released from warming ice is 'liberated' from the constraints of solidity, and it takes on new properties and a new 'life' of its own quite separate from ice. Perhaps a similar comparison can be made to consciousness once it has been 'projected' out of its material matrix; in which case it is possible that, like ice-released vapor, consciousness has a seperate being and category level than the matter from which it supposedly originated".
But a more pertinent question might be - considering that Dharma Wheel is a Buddhist site - "What did Shakyamuni say about consciousness? And what do the Theravadan, Mahayanist, Vajrayanist, and Shin schools say? To what extent does Buddhist consciousness-experience, philosophy, and theory/speculation support, agree with, confirm ... OR conflict with and contradict ... the modern materialist point of view?"
catmoon wrote:I mean, it could just be a very nice academic materialist way of saying, well we really have no idea what is going on.
In electronics, one might say that video games are an emergent property of transistors. But in that case we a can trace the emergence step by step from transistors to logic gates to programmability to computer languages graphics and finally games. But we can't do that with the brain and consciousness. We can't come within a million miles of creating a circuit that generates , say, compassion. So what do we do? We throw the "emergent property" label at it - without having the faintest idea of the mechanisms involved.
In such a case, it means the same thing as saying "A miracle has occurred" or "At step 4 some magic happens". The speaker has exactly the same knowledge of the mechanism - none whatsoever.
Andrew108 wrote:I think more than ever it's actually important for buddhists to get in line with scientists and accept that the brain is the site for the arising of consciousness. This doesn't diminish the buddhist view at all in any way. Why not?
Buddhism isn't really interested in establishing which relative truth is more truthful. The 'fact' of dependent origination isn't undone by the the statement that 'consciousness' resides in the brain and is produced in the brain. Both the brain and the consciousness that abide there lack any essential nature.
The Seeker wrote:Our brain has an "electrical" system in it correct? Now what's to say this isn't our conciousness.
Electrical energy is not destroyed or used up, so in that line of thought, what's to say that our "electrical energy" or consciousness doesn't continue on after the cessation of this physical existance.
Dexing wrote:Consciousness is an emergent property of a brain like light is an emergent property of a lightbulb. Electrical energy must be converted to produce consciousness and light. That is to say electrical charge or energy itself is not conscious or bright.
Just as when the filament in a lightbulb breaks it ceases to produce light, when a brain stops working so does consciousness. Unlike light from a lightbulb that is emitted outside the bulb and eventually becomes heat, there is no evidence of consciousness exiting the brain.
Even granting that electrical energy could exit the brain at the cessation of physical existence, it being transmitted to a new brain and regenerating consciousness would violate the Buddhist theory of Dependent Origination, which states that it is 'consciousness' that conditions 'name and form'. So there would be no brain to receive this electrical energy and convert it into consciousness.
it is consciousness that conditions name and form
Dexing wrote:
The model states that the combined neural and glial system with multiple synapses and astrocytes interacting electrically and chemically results in the emergent property of consciousness.
There is a difference between theory and scientific theory. "Emergent properties" of the brain are not just theories or labels thrown on something we don't understand. Otherwise it would be a religious doctrine and not scientific theory. It is scientific theory with indication.
The Seeker wrote:it is consciousness that conditions name and form
Is a brain actually necessary for name and form?
Does a Deva, Hungry Ghost, Asura or even a Buddha have a brain? A brain is a physical attribute.
So unless ones existence is in a physical realm there is no brain but still the energy of consciousness.
Your example of the light bulbs filament being broke and hence no energy going through it still doesn't mean the energy doesn't exist. I'll refer to the point made on the forum before, Since the tv is off does that mean there is no programming happening? Of course not, just that that television is not on broadcasting it.

DETROIT (AP) - Republicans regained control of the Michigan House and increased their advantage in the Senate, giving incoming governor Rick Snyder plenty of allies at the state Capitol when he takes office next year.
Democrats have held control of the 110-seat House since 2007. But Republicans on Tuesday were able to win enough open seats and defeat at least seven incumbents to retake the House.
They also increased their majority in the 38-seat Senate, winning at least 24 races and leading in two others as of early Wednesday. They now hold a 22-16 edge.
Republicans had won 58 House races and were leading in five others as of early Wednesday.
''It's crazy, but it's a good crazy,'' said Rep. Pete Lund, a Republican from Macomb County's Shelby Township and a leader of the House Republican campaign effort. ''We're going to sit down together and change the direction of the state of Michigan.''

After more than a year of deliberation, Colby changed the Dean's List standard so that, effective this fall, the top 30 percent of students ranked by the semester's grade point average qualify, assuming they meet all the other specified academic criteria. Previously the requirement was a 3.2 grade point average (3.0 for first-years).
Requirements for Latin honors changed from 3.75 (summa cum laude), 3.5 (magna cum laude), and 3.25 (cum laude), to the top 5, 10, and 20 percent of the graduating class. The Latin honors changes affect students entering in the fall of 2006 or later.
The changes resulted from comparisons with peer schools and the sense that, with almost three quarters of the student body making the Dean's List, the honor was no longer distinctive. Referring to a comment by President William Adams at an open forum about the children of Lake Wobegon, Dean of Faculty Ed Yeterian said, "All the children can't be above average. It's mathematically impossible."
Some students worried that, having made the Dean's List in previous semesters, it would look bad on their records if they no longer receive the honor, said Patrick Sanders '08, who was part of the committee that recommended the changes. But, he said, "If you expect to get this honor then we expect you to work for it."
In the old system, Sanders said, Dean's List no longer seemed like an honor. But some feel the new system favors students in certain disciplines. "It puts the science and, I could say probably the government students, at a real disadvantage," said Canaan Morse '07, an East Asian studies major. Moreover, "The underlying problem of grade inflation is what makes Dean's List a problem," Morse said. "It's false to argue [...] that the two aren't linked."
Yeterian says the changes were not a response to grade inflation, and that there are many reasons for students earning higher grades, including a more selective admissions process.
Adams tackled grade inflation at the open forum for students. "Grade inflation is one of those hugely vexing issues that faculties frankly have a lot of trouble addressing because it touches upon all kinds of intense feelings of prerogative in the classroom," he said. "I think this faculty will probably take up the issue of grade inflation reasonably soon, but that's for the faculty to decide."

text: Calving Season May Require Feed Supplements It's better to supplement substandard hay with expensive corn rather than have poor reproductive performance after calving, an extension specialist says. Published on: Jan 3, 2013 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Producers who want to assure productive calving season may want to consider testing their forage supplies to ensure the feed is of high nutritional value, an Ohio State University Extension beef expert said. Otherwise, feeding poor quality forages to cows in the late gestation or early lactation period can have devastating negative impacts on conception rates in the following breeding season, said John Grimes, beef coordinator for OSU Extension. If producers find they have poor quality forage, they may want to supplement the feed with higher quality corn for those cows, particularly with first-calf heifers, he said. "In nearly every cow-calf operation, harvested forages are the primary diet component of winter rations, but we typically know less about those forages than any other feed and health products consumed by the herd," Grimes said. "It's easy to over-value hay that looks good in the bale while we may have forgotten how mature it was when it was packaged."It's better to supplement substandard hay with expensive corn rather than have poor reproductive performance after calving, an extension specialist says. The issue is even more significant this year, considering that the drought of 2012 has been one of the worst on record. "The drought caused shorter supplies, so there may be some less desirable hay," Grimes said. "So if your hay isn't good enough, you test it and it is nutritionally inferior, you may have to supplement with byproduct feed or corn." To that extent, producers should consider sending forage samples in for nutritional analysis before feeding it to late-gestation or early-lactation females to determine its nutritional quality. If the quality is poor, producers may need to balance the ration with corn or grain byproducts to meet the needs of a mature or growing female under production stress, he said. "Poor quality hay cannot be improved by feeding more poor quality hay," Grimes said. "If you feed lower quality feed to cows in late-gestation or early-lactation period, they will regress and lose body condition. "For a cow to calve every year, which producers need in order to pay the bills, the cow needs to rebreed within 90 days of calving, so you need to ensure that females receive feeds that are high in quality and adequate in volume. Producers need to consider when their calving season is and how that relates to the feed they have and how they will distribute that feed." To ensure a more successful, healthy and productive calving, cows need to maintain adequate body condition scores during critical production times, he said. "Body Condition Scores ranging from 5 to 6 are considered ideal during late gestation or early lactation in this scoring system where 1 is thin and 9 is obese," Grimes said. "Poor nutrition and declining BCS during late gestation or early lactation can have devastating negative impacts on conception rates in the following breeding season." Within 30 to 60 days of breeding, producers should consider putting the cow on an inclining or improving nutritional program, he said. While that can be expensive, the costs associated with not improving the nutritional value will be much more costly in the long run, Grimes said. "It may be painful to buy expensive supplemental feed but be more expensive to have an open cow, which won't be able to breed," he said. "If the cow is thin or in poor state of nutrition, she won't breed or it will take multiple services to conceive. "It's kind of like the old saying, 'you pay me now or you pay me later.' It's better to supplement substandard hay with expensive corn rather than have poor reproductive performance after calving." Source: OSU Extension

Joe's Pasta House - It's Foood & Family – The first thing you need to know about Joe's Pasta House - expect Joe Guzzardi (the owner) and his wife, Kassie, to welcome you like you're family.
Pasta House isn't a giant chain restaurant with impersonal service and food that's heated in a microwave.
The food at Pasta House is served in generous portions. If you're watching your weight, ask the servers to box half of it before you even get started. Yes, the servings are that large.
The quality of the food is superb. My personal favorite is chicken parmigiana. So much so that it's a shock to the wait staff when I order something different.
The menu is far more than just a spaghetti and meatballs restaurant. The variety of offerings means you're guaranteed to find something you'll enjoy.
I personally recommend the chicken parmigiana, baked ziti, and chicken marsala.
If you enjoy seafood, Joe has you covered there also.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is warm and welcoming. If you're looking to enjoy an intimate dinner for two, request table 16 by the fireplace.
As a full disclosure, let me just say that my family's relationship with Joe Guzzardi started with walking in off the street for dinner. The quality of his food and the impeccable service by his waitstaff has converted us from customers to long time friends.
I challenge anyone to find someone who feels the same way about any of the chain Italian restaurants.
Give Joe's a try. You'll soon feel the same way.
Best Italian Restuarant since I left Buffalo NY in 1973 – Menu is posted on their website. Check it out.
If you love great Italian food then you NEED to go visit this place. The owner, Joe Guzzardi is a delight and is a hands on owner. He grew up in NYC and imports fresh ingredients each week. You will find no canned shelf solutions on the menu. The food is fantastic (best Italian Sausage I have ever had!). Great atmosphere, very fair prices and a total delight. Great place to go just before you head off to the Hockey game. They feature an extensive menu with both veal and chicken and great pasta. Good wine selection and site shows menu. His card shows the business name as Joe's Pasta House. You can tell this is a labor of love for Joe and his lovely wife.
Try the Rigatoni ala Vodka, it is superb! – I'm an ex-New Yorker and I'm rather particular about my Italian food. Pasta House serves the best Italian food here in RIo Rancho; there isn't any restaurant that comes close to Pasta House (not even Olive Garden). The service is excellent, the ambience is soothing, the owner is attentive and the prices are very reasonable. I dine there frequently and I sometimes stop in for an espresso and canolli; the owner, Joe, is very accommodating.
Editorial Review by Christy Buena – Italian grill and bistro caters to locals with fresh seafood and meat pasta dishes as well as Atkins diet delights.
WOW! Now that's an "Italian Lunch Buffet" Priced so right! – "Pasta Cafe Italian Grill" is located right next to Albuquerque, so don't think you need to drive far from town to get to the "Pasta Cafe"-There's one other location in Roswell, New Mexico as well...a good friend of Joe's owns that one. "Same GREAT Menu" The atmosphere at Pasta Cafe is all about Italian Food, with background music from the famous "Dean Martin" Thats Amore'...and Oh my-The pasta/salad's/breads/egg plant...(fresh bread baked right in the kitchen)-and pleanty of it! all pleasing to the pallet.
A true to the heart "Warm-Greeting" from the owner "Joe"- right away you feel like your in his home and he truly want's you to feel that way. The servers are all spoil you with good manners and excellent service. Joe will make the effort to visit your table, as it's all about your satisfaction and good eating!
Drive the distance for this Italian food...it's well worth it! "THIS IS THE REAL DEAL"
Italian at it's BEST! – Joe "the OWNER" usually greets you at the door but if some reason he doesn't, he makes sure to visit you at your meal, You can feel the warmth he gives to you as soon as he smiles, let alone a "TASTE of New York". I bring my wife and kids here all the time. More when I miss New York City. Joe , Treats you like, Your his own FAMILY. The food portions are more then your money worth. It's ITALIAN AT IT'S BEST. The wine is unforgetable too.

It was the best of times.
Or so it seemed.
Jews in 19th century France thought that their exile was over. They were Frenchmen and proud of it, part of society and untroubled by the persecutions their grandmothers had told them about.
Pierre Rousseau was an aspiring young journalist whose Jewish roots had withered. He, too, was a good and accepted Frenchman -- or so he thought. He was hired by an Orthodox Jewish publisher -- a rare anachronism in those days. The publisher was an Orthodox Jew, and so was his young daughter.
Then came the cataclysm. A Jewish officer in the French Army was accused of treason. Court-martialed. Convicted. Disgraced. Condemned to Devils Island. And suddenly, anti-Semitism exploded as virulently as a Ukrainian Pogrom.
It was a revelation to Pierre Rousseau, and it changed his life. He plunged into the fray to defend the falsely convicted officer. And he began to search for his roots and to breathe new vigor into personal Jewishness.
In this gripping historical novel, all three strands come together: the assimilated journalist, the Orthodox publisher and his daughter, and the framed Jewish officer. This is an exciting tale of intrigue, courage, idealism, and growth. Its a great, real and moving lesson of Jewish eternity.

In this first post I presented the Prosol Elec project that the Tunisian government introduced in 2009 to promote photovoltaic electricity generation, in today's post I will review and criticise the technical requirements of eligible installations.
According to the guidelines defined by the ANME, the following specifications must be met:
- CEI-61215: mono- and poly- crystalline PV modules.
- CEI-61646: thin film PV modules.
- Modules must be tested and certified by an accredited lab.
- All modules used to make the PV array must be identical with a tolerance of +/- 5% of nominal peak power.
- Moules must have a junction box with a minimum weatherproof rating of IP54, and bypass diodes.
- Minimum product warranty for the PV modules must be of 5 years. Performance guarantee have to be at least 90% for the first 10 years and 80% after 25 years.
- Installers will have to properly choose the PV array installation location, with the client's agreement. This location must have enough available area, facing south as much as possible, and without obstacles that may create a shadow on the modules in any season. Furthermore, this location will have to support the modules weight. Optimal inclination is 30° to he horizontal plane. Nevertheless, installers are free to choose other inclination angles to privilege yield in some seasons, with the client's agreement.
- Rows of PV modules should not shade each other.
- When installing the mounting systems, installers must make sure that the roof remain waterproof (no drilling) without compromising the stability of the structure.
- Mounting systems must resist without damage to strong winds and to corrosion.
And here is my criticism to every one of these points below:
- This is fine and pretty mainstream, almost all modules on the market have it, otherwise no chance to be sold in the most important PV markets in EU.
- Same as above.
- The text does not make any reference to what kind of accreditation the testing lab must have (does it have to be accredited by a tunisian ministry, or what exactly).
- This is non-sense, because many inverters have now more than one MPP tracker and can have two totally different PV arrays connected to their separate inputs. A proper wording would be to insist on having identical modules on each string.
- Many new thin film modules do not have bypass diodes and that is totally fine. Just as an example, Schott Solar makes the amorphous silicon-based ASI series and they are excellent modules by any mean, with 30 years linear performance warranty, and they don't incorporate any bypass diodes. For the curious readers, this is an interesting read that explains why (in a nutshell because cells in a thin film module are connected in parallel and are less vulnerable to shading).
- This is fine even though market standards are now higher than these requirements.
- There is enough room for interpretation in this point to make me uncomfortable about it: I think that words "properly" and "enough" do not have a place in a technical specification document. Requirements must be defined in terms of measurable figures and in the corresponding units.
- The same comment applies, there should be a defined safety margin with a tolerance for this requirement.
- The same comment applies again.
- This point really makes me doubt about the seriousness of such a document. The forces that mounting systems are usually defined using many factors, including the strongest measured wind velocity in the region in the last 50 years and other meteorologic data. In Germany for example there is the DIN 1055 and in every other EU country there is an equivalent standard. What is a strong wind? and how to ensure that the structure will resist corrosion without requiring testing certificates or defined materials? do we just believe the seller's word? A lot of improvement must be done on this point, including making a national norm for light construction structures.
Already many flaws found in this law and this is only the beginning. I am quite impressed to find such flaws in a law that was drafted with the support of the GIZ and the italian ministry for the environment.
In the next couple of posts I will examine the requirements for DC cables, solar inverters and AC cabling, then I will re-evaluate the Prosol Elec project as a whole, as well as the national energy policy.

Lloyd Banks – Get Low Lyrics
[Lloyd Banks]
Uhh, yeah
I like the way you do that shorty
C'mere, can you do somethin for me?
I like the way you movin girl
Show me how you do that girl
I like the way you do that shorty
C'mere, can you do somethin for me?
[Hook: Lloyd Banks]
I can't, stand here and watch her dance
She got me comin out of my pants
And I don't wanna miss my chance
To hit your phone up, if I could
And get her out of here I would
I never seen a girl move that good
And there's somethin tellin me I should
Get low
[Lloyd Banks]
I'm in the 2006, brand new wagon
Lookin for a diva to handle the dragon
And even if there's two of 'em I move in and bag 'em
Make sure I'm strapped, keep the uz' and the magnum
Yeah the gun too, I'm talkin 'bout the condom
They followin me home with my dog right behind 'em
Have you ever seen a ass clapped on a stallion
Of a bad bitch, half black and Italian
I don't know if she likes me or my medallion
Think I give a fuck? I'm just tryin to get a nut
I don't need a woman to build my self-esteem up
I'm fresh out the hood, fuck it it's all good
Ma you can use me, cause I'mma use you
For a menage-a-trois, you know the usual
And if you do me maybe I'll do you
A favor and walk you outside, right
[Lloyd Banks]
Uh - nah I ain't never ate pussy before
But I'm close to the edge and she pushin me lower
The body language done got a nigga stiff as a sword
So she can't be an angel, the bitch is a fraud
Head probably sent the nigga on a trip to the morgue
Pussy good enough to drive out to Michigan for it
As soon as I hit the door she's squeezin my arm
Hoppin all on a nigga like I'm filet mignon
It might take a couple rounds to make me get her calm
But when she does go to sleep she gon' need an alarm
Cause I'm gone - she wanna be with a Don
But I'm stuck when some woman care about me when it's on
Ain't nuttin wrong, with a little bumpin and grindin
Especially if if they got somethin behind 'em
I'm high as hell, be so drunk when I climb in
High on the friction that I'm in
[Lloyd Banks]
Shorty looks like she's datin a fashion designer
Damn - um she musta got her back from her momma
You know me, somewhere in the back with the llama
Keeps my niggas cats with the drama
I'ma, get a little close to her, ma looks so sweet
She remind me a lot of a broad named Monique
But a bird nigga try to holla they won't speak
You be writin the phone number down they won't keep
Let me get her, I haven't burned the haze all week
Givin me wop to the music that blaze on beat
Yeah, I'm so street, I'm so cheap, I'm so fly
But you already know that I
Done been all around the world, they don't know that guy
But little man wanna talk too, I close that eye
He just mad he ain't got the kinda clothes I buy
Or ride in the U4 I drive

The Calhoun County 911 Board of Directors Thursday accepted the takeover of the Calhoun County portion of the 800 megahertz radio system currently operated by the Alabama Regional Communication System. The approval of the measure at a called meeting came less than an hour after the Calhoun County Commission approved the measure at its regular meeting.
"It says a lot about this process that we got together and accomplished this," said Commissioner Tim Hodges after the commission approved the measure. "No one went off in separate directions."
The groups' two votes Thursday were the first of three steps that will set up the 911 board's takeover of the system, which officials hope will be complete by October when the Regional Communication System's fiscal year ends.
"This sets up the mechanism for takeover when the Alabama Regional Communication System votes for dissolution," said the board's attorney Jason Odom. "This gives the board the authority to sign documents in the process."
That vote could come as early as Tuesday, when the Communication System's Board of Directors will have a called meeting.
Only a few weeks ago the future of the system looked bleak. Earlier this year a bill that would have required residents in Calhoun and Talladega counties to vote on a property tax increase to fund a system upgrade, failed to move through Montgomery. The Alabama Regional Communication System Board of Directors said it would need to nearly double user fees in order to raise the close to $4 million projected to upgrade the system — an option that chairman and Talladega police Chief Alan Watson said some users couldn't afford.
Federal funding set up the communication system in the 1990s for local officials to respond to emergencies that could have arisen from the chemical weapons stockpile the U.S. Army maintained in Anniston. Funding went away when the last of the weapons were destroyed in 2011.
The 911 board has scheduled a called meeting on May 29 to confer with members of the Alabama Regional Communication System to learn about the 800 MHz system and the takeover.
In other business, the commission:
— Approved the hiring of an information technology administrator at the Calhoun County Sheriff's Office.
— Approved contact with G Squared for $96,500 for mapping the northern portion of Calhoun County.
— Approved $8,000 allocation to Hobson City for equipment for a public park.
— Approved contracts with EMC Excavation Contractors and Teague Hauling and Demolition for $36,520 for removal of debris on public nuisance properties.
— Approved alcohol licenses for K and S Quick Stop on Roy Webb Road in Jacksonville and Express Mart on Old Birmingham Highway in Anniston.
— Renewed an agreement with The Nances Creek Community and Recreation Center to maintain land used as a public park.
— Approved a contract with Pleasant Valley Recreational Sports Association for $1,000 for materials and equipment for youth sports leagues.
— Declared public nuisance properties at 327 Rocky Hollow Road in Jacksonville and 2604 Simpson St. and 3646 Old Downing Mill Road in Anniston.
— Dismissed nuisance abatements at 1504 Willett St. and Grayton Road in Ohatchee.

SVNChecker is a framework for Subversion pre-commit hooks in order to implement checks of the to-be-committed files before they are committed. For example, you can check for the code style or unit tests. The output of the checks can be send by mail, written to a file, or simply printed to the console.
OpenLexicon is a business rules and business process management tool that rapidly develops applications for transaction and process-based applications. There are two main components of OpenLexicon: the metadata repository and the business rules engine. The OpenLexicon business rules engine is not Rete based. It has a predicate evaluator that includes a unique ability: it can evaluate small, inline Java expressions. OpenLexicon provides strong support for Web services, so complex rulesets can be published to a service-oriented architecture without writing code. An Eclipse plugin-in is available that creates a comprehensive WSDL and data type (.XSD) in your Eclipse project.
The svnmailer is a tool that is usually called by a subversion hook to submit commit notifications in various ways (at the moment: mail via SMTP or a pipe to a sendmail like program, news via NNTP, or CIA live tracker notification via XML-RPC). It is derived from the original mailer.py distributed with subversion, but should be much more consistent, more extensible, and have many more features.
Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux system. Rather than having a full distribution come from a single vendor, it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from other repositories across the Internet.
Subversion is a version control system. Originally designed to be a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community, it has far exceeded that goal and seen widespread adoption in both open source and corporate environments. The Subversion project produces Subversion's core libraries (written in C), a fully functional command line client (svn), repository administration programs, API bindings for various languages (Perl, Python, Java, Ruby, etc.), and various additional tools and scripts.

Dancing With The 'Stros presented by Minute Maid was a huge success on September 15! The Astros Foundation's first-time charitable fundraiser featured professional dancers paired with Astros players, performing on stage at the House of Blues to riotous laughter and applause. The five Astros "dancers" were judged by the other 2013 players, who gave their ratings and humorous comments to each teammate following their performance. The results were:
Honkey-Tonk Badonk- A- Donk Award: Trevor Crowe
Hips Don't Lie Award: Jose Altuve
Moves Like Jagger Award: Jarred Cosart
Bringing Sexy Back Award: Jake Elmore
2013 Dancing with the Stros Grand Prize Winner: Dallas Keuchel
The charitable fundraiser raised nearly $200,000 for the Astros Foundation. At the event, Minute Maid executive Fred Arnold announced that the company will nearly triple its support for the team's Urban Youth Academy in northwest Houston and expand its free Grand Slam for Youth Baseball and Softball program in partnership with the Astros Foundation.
Urban Youth Academy member, Astros bat boy and 17 year old high school senior Nate Crawford, received a standing ovation after delivering a moving talk about how his life was changed by the UYA. Afterwards, Astros General Manager Jeff Luhnow presented Crawford with a team autographed bat and Minute Maid awarded him a $2,500 Grand Slam for Youth college scholarship.Read more

A journey redefined
From the very start we've followed our passion for redefining the journey. In 2008, we changed the electric bike market forever with the world's first true ebike, with its own bespoke internal motor system.
But simply starting an engineering revolution wasn't enough. We wanted our collection to have its own, distinct identity, and not simply look like bicycles with batteries added. So our German design team created an entire range of ebikes that ride as beautifully as they look.
Our passion for design
Today's A2B range is the result of the engineering innovation and design brilliance of our Berlin design centre. We believe that it's the tiny details that make our ebikes so special; the loving attention to detail, drive for perfection, sleepless nights, thought and hard work that goes into each and every model.
Our bikes are a true labour of love, and that passion comes across in the design and rides of our range. And we hope that you feel that love when you take possession of your own A2B ebike.
Our sister brand
Every grown up range of premium ebikes needs a practical little sister. And for A2B that's F4W – a chic, affordable range of ebikes. F4W's capsule range includes the sporty Peak, and chic and comfortable Ride models.
Find out more about our fun F4W models and find out where to buy.

Two East Bay restaurants run by the same Israeli family mean double the chances of falafel overdose. – In Short
The decor is down-to-earth and the service unceremonious, but for some loyal customers, eating at the Holy Land is a religious experience. Falafel and shewarma connoisseurs debate whether the sandwiches are as good or better than the ones in Israel. Regulars are easy to spot: They're the oes deftly navigating torn pita pockets and tempering bites of Middle Eastern spice with tall glasses of frothy mint lemonade.

Memory Type: DDR2 PC2-5300, DDR2 (non-ECC)Maximum Memory: 2GB
Slots: 2
Although the memory can be installed one module at a time, the best performance comes from using matched pairs of modules.
Memory or DRAM is the "working" memory of the computer. It's used to store data for programs (sequences of instructions) on a temporary basis.
video - installing memory
Storage Drives -- hard drives and solid state drives -- are the permanent memory for the programs and documents on your computer.
Data Transfer Rate is the rate at which data can be sent or received. This is determined by your motherboard. A drive with a higher transfer rate will only run at the rate of the motherboard's transfer rate.
Cache is a type of working memory that allows the drive to perform faster.
RPM is the rotations per minute of a hard drive which effects the speed of data transfer.
Solid State Drives are non-moving memory, so access speed is instant.

This product is a commodity; it performed as I expected.I bought upgrades for my intel mac book, and for my old ppc G5 imac. The imac had minimal memory (512M I think) and it now runs much faster. The ibook had 1Gb and bringing it up to two only seems to help massive data processing, which I do occasionally.I suspect the virtualization stuff (I have Parallels and run linux occasionally) would be much better but have not yet tested it.

Worth the money I suppose
Xbench shows slightly slower speeds with this new ram. Otherwise the 2 gb really helps browsing and having a few apps open.

MacBook 2GB RAM Upgrade
By dapv
from Boston, Ma
I upgraded from 1GB to 2GB. As this is the only upgrade available, I guess I recommend it as it's probably better than nothing. That said, I'm a casual / light user, and this upgrade has made little difference. I still get pinwheeling and Excel still stops responding from time to time, and other apps like Word and email hang a bit.The product is fine, it just doesn't provide a noticeable difference, and as I said earlier, I'm a very casual and uncomplicated user.Crucial.com was great, I will buy from them again.

Just Right
By student with an ancient laptop
from Austin, TX
I really love that Crucial tells you exactly what you need. It's a bummer that my computer can't handle more than 2 GB of RAM, but it's a whole lot better than the whopping 512 MB I had before this upgrade. I installed the RAM on my laptop with the help of a friend... It's hard to install, but I'm pretty sure that's due to a design flaw in the computer. We did eventually get it in (push REALLY hard). The computer accepted the RAM just fine and now it's working great.
How much memory do I need?
If your Mac is getting a little older, you may notice that it doesn't run as fast as it used to. A memory upgrade from Crucial.com can give your Mac the boost it needs – for surprisingly little money.The amount of memory you need to optimize your computing performance depends on your computer model and what you use it. Overall, we recommend a minimum of 8GB of RAM for systems with the capacity. Learn more from these guidelines.
How can I tell if my RAM is bad?
If you are having performance issues, software "hangs" or random crashes—we recommend you run a memory test. For the Mac OS, a popular tester is Rember, which can be found here:
Set Rember to test "All", and check the box next to "Infinite" number of loops, and let the test run for at least half an hour. Since Rember is running from your desktop, it's important that you shut down all applications before you run the test. If you have any programs open, the test will be a lot less accurate.
If Rember finds errors with your RAM, you may need to replace it. To request an RMA, fill out the online request form, or contact Customer Service for your region.
What is the difference between DDR3, DDR2, DDR, and SDRAM?
Single data rate (SDR) SDRAM is the older type of memory, commonly used in computers prior to 2002.Double data rate (DDR) SDRAM hit the mainstream computer market around 2002 and is a straightforward evolution from SDR SDRAM. The most significant difference between DDR and SDR is that DDR reads data on both the rising and falling edges of the clock signal, enabling a DDR memory module to transfer data twice as fast as an SDR memory module. The generation after DDR, called DDR2, began to appear in mid-2004. DDR2 is faster than DDR, delivering bandwidth of up to 8.5 GB per second. Frequently, DDR2 based systems can use memory installed in pairs to run in "dual channel mode" to increase memory throughput even further.The most recent generation of memory technology, DDR3, began to appear in systems in late 2007. DDR3 is the next evolutionary step beyond DDR2 and operates at lower voltages, which means it consumes less power, and it can transfer data at rates up to 12.8 GB per second. Your Mac supports only the memory generation that it first shipped with. You cannot mix and match SDRAM, DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 memory in a Mac. The different memory types don't function together, they will not even fit in the same sockets.Because of this, you need to make sure that your upgrade is of the same memory generation as the memory that shipped with your Mac. The easiest way to find compatible memory is to look up your system in Crucial's Memory Advisor tool, that will list only compatible memory for your Mac.If you don't know the exact model of your Mac, the Crucial Mac Scanner will automatically detect your system configuration and give you a report on which upgrade is right for you.
Get a Mac-compatible DRAM upgrade for OS X Lion at Crucial.com
It's the moment you've all been waiting for: Lion is here!
The successor to Apple's Snow Leopard OS, the official memory requirement for Lion is a sparse 2GB, but the Memory Experts at Crucial recommend at least 8GB, once you factor in everything you'll be doing with that OS, like watching videos, organizing photos and music, web browsing, gaming, and so much more. Crucial memory is guaranteed compatible with your Mac system when you use our online tool and and it costs far less than the memory you buy from your system manufacturer. Our Mac memory is backed by limited lifetime warranties and outstanding service and support.
To find out how much memory you have and what compatible upgrades are available, use our Mac System Scanner. If you know what memory you need, find it here.
Apple's latest version of OS X was released on July 20, 2011 as a download from the Mac App Store, a departure from any previous OS releases on CD or DVD.So if you're running Tiger or Leopard, you would first have to be upgraded to Snow Leopard, because the OS is only available via the Mac App store which is a feature of Snow Leopard.
.But don't worry – you can get Lion on your system. If you don't have Snow Leopard, you can get an in-store download at retail Apple Stores. Or you can buy the OS (on a USB drive) on the online Apple Store beginning in August 2011.
The new Mac OS X Lion is designed, according to Apple, to take the various interface capabilities that have made the iPad so popular and apply them to a more traditional Mac computer, including compatibility with the Mac App Store. Mac OS X Lion users can browse and make purchases using their Apple computer through an interface, called Launchpad, that opens as a full-screen display.
The ability to run applications in full-screen is another similarity between the iPad and OS X Lion. The system for running applications in full-screen is not only designed to create an immersive experience, it is also designed for convenience. By swiping the trackpad, users can freely switch between running applications without ever leaving full-screen mode. Mac OS X Lion includes a program called Mission Control, which shows running applications and processes and letting them control operations from a central hub.
All in all, there are a lot of great things about the new OS X Lion. With ample memory, you'll get the most out of your investment today, and tomorrow.

Sorry to clog this up again, but it seems the vendors are only selliing MAC RAM for the older machines it seems.
So I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 0199-23U which can take up to 8GB as 2GB sodimm modules. It is PC3-8500 1066MHz DDR3 RAM with dual-channel capable non-parity.
So the question is will the CT4G3S160BM ram (2 modules) do the job even though it is quite a bit faster/newer?
Thanks for any feedback on this matter.
I purchased and installed two 8GB ram modules for my Early 2011 Macbook Pro. That was some time ago and I've never noticed any problem. Just last week I had to take this Apple in for a logic board replacement due to failure and they removed my Crucual modules only saying "Issues". So now I've only 1/2 the ram and I really don't know if there's a problem or not. Since it was warranty work I'm wondering if they replaced the modules since they weren't of Apple branding. Or are they now bad or incompatible? I have no clue. So before I put them back in I thought it might be wise to ask for any assistance from others who will know more than I do on this. Thanks
I tried to upgrade the RAM in my mid-2011 27" iMac. I followed OWC's awful advice to leave the computer plugged in to a grounded socket (to discharge static, supposedly). Now the computer doesn't turn on. No power, no fan, nothing. I tried every combination of new and old memory and every slot. Nothing. I fear that leaving the computer plugged in may have damaged something irreversibly. Maybe lost the PMU? Has anyone encountered this? Does anyone have any advice? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks!
Just recently I purchased 8gb (4gb x 2) 1066 MT/s of ram that was put into an Imac (late 2009) with 3.06 ghz . I am not using the iMac as much as I thought and am using my macbook pro (mid 2009) with 2.26 ghz and 2gb 1067 mhz of DDR3 memory more. I am thinking of moving the 8gb of ram from the iMac to my Macbook pro and putting the original 4gb of ram back into the iMac. Would this be safe to do, or would I better off buying 8gb of new ram to put in the macbook pro?

If you need only a specified number of rows from a result set,
use a
LIMIT clause in the query, rather
than fetching the whole result set and throwing away the extra
MySQL sometimes optimizes a query that has a
clause and no
HAVING clause:
If you select only a few rows with
LIMIT, MySQL uses indexes in some cases
when normally it would prefer to do a full table scan.
If you use
ORDER BY, MySQL ends the sorting as
soon as it has found the first
row_count rows of the sorted
result, rather than sorting the entire result. If ordering
is done by using an index, this is very fast. If a
filesort must be done, all rows that match the query
without the
LIMIT clause are selected,
and most or all of them are sorted, before the first
row_count are found. After the
initial rows have been found, MySQL does not sort any
remainder of the result set.
When combining
DISTINCT, MySQL stops as soon as it
row_count unique rows.
In some cases, a
GROUP BY can be
resolved by reading the key in order (or doing a sort on
the key) and then calculating summaries until the key
value changes. In this case,
does not
calculate any unnecessary
As soon as MySQL has sent the required number of rows to
the client, it aborts the query unless you are using
LIMIT 0 quickly returns an empty set.
This can be useful for checking the validity of a query.
When using one of the MySQL APIs, it can also be employed
for obtaining the types of the result columns. (This trick
does not work in the MySQL Monitor (the
mysql program), which merely displays
Empty set in such cases; instead, use
SHOW COLUMNS or
DESCRIBE for this purpose.)
When the server uses temporary tables to resolve the
query, it uses the
clause to
calculate how much space is required.
As of MySQL 5.6.2, the optimizer more efficiently handles queries (and subqueries) of the following form:
single_table... ORDER BY
non_index_column[DESC] LIMIT [
That type of query is common in web applications that display only a few rows from a larger result set. For example:
SELECT col1, ... FROM t1 ... ORDER BY name LIMIT 10; SELECT col1, ... FROM t1 ... ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 15;
The sort buffer has a size of
sort_buffer_size. If the sort
elements for
N rows are small
enough to fit in the sort buffer
rows if
M was specified), the
server can avoid using a merge file and perform the sort
entirely in memory by treating the sort buffer as a priority
Scan the table, inserting the select list columns from each selected row in sorted order in the queue. If the queue is full, bump out the last row in the sort order.
Return the first
N rows from
the queue. (If
M was specified,
skip the first
M rows and
return the next
N rows.)
Previously, the server performed this operation by using a merge file for the sort:
Scan the table, repeating these steps through the end of the table:
Select rows until the sort buffer is filled.
Write the first
N rows in
the buffer
rows if
M was specified) to
a merge file.
Sort the merge file and return the first
N rows. (If
M was specified, skip the first
M rows and return the next
N rows.)
The cost of the table scan is the same for the queue and merge-file methods, so the optimizer chooses between methods based on other costs:
The queue method involves more CPU for inserting rows into the queue in order
The merge-file method has I/O costs to write and read the file and CPU cost to sort it
The optimizer considers the balance between these factors for
particular values of
N and the row

When one is using a LIMIT attribute in their query ,
it's often fallowed by an OFFSET. These two togeather
are often used in pagination ( paging of results ) as in.
select * from thetable limit 10 offset 0
To find out how many rows would be available if one had not
used the LIMIT / OFFSET, one would alter the statement
above to look like this
select SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS * from thetable limit 10 offset 0
The return from both commands looks the same, so to get the
row count you need to issue a fallowup query
select FOUND_ROWS()

|[Delete] [Edit]
So one wants to search for a particular record/row in
the database table and calculate an initial offset
value to feed into the typical pagination routines.
While there may be better ways to do this , what I cobbled
together was this little bit of MySql syntax that seems to work just fine on my little 40,000 row table.
set @row=-1;select foo.Row,foo.company_name from (select @row:= @row+1 AS Row ,company_name from TheCompanyDatabaseTable ) AS foo where foo.company_name='whatever';
Given the fact I searched in vein for this answer , I figured I'd post the answer I hacked up so it will
be here the next time I need it.
